Nail surgery
Change to a better version of your nail.
Nail surgery also known as Nail avulsion involves detachment of the nail plate from the nail bed ventrally and the proximal nail folds proximally and dorsally.
Nail surgery is a common and effective treatment for a variety of nail conditions. With proper care and follow-up, most patients experience relief from symptoms and a good recovery.
How the procedure is done?
- Firstly the nail is anaesthetised with a local anaesthetic injected at the base of nail.
- When it gets completely numb, an antiseptic solution will be applied to the toe to minimise the chance of infection. The offending nail or piece of the nail will then be removed.
- A chemical solution (phenol) is applied to stop the nail from regrowing.
- A protective dressing will be applied, and the operation is complete. The whole procedure is over and done within an hour (for one toe).
